This summer, Naomi Ramsay ’14 explored issues of tracking and educational stratification in New Jersey.

Her research was part of a Mentored Advanced Project with Audrey Devine-Eller. Devine-Eller is writing a book on her years of ethnographic research at a school in New Jersey, and shared her data with Ramsay.

Their work is important, says Devine-Eller, in “this college-for-all era in which students are universally encouraged to go to college, yet about half don’t go, and many who do go don’t complete their degrees.”
